‘Deadpool': Morena Baccarin on Sex Montages, Improv, and Keeping Up with Ryan Reynolds

Earlier this year, when director Tim Miller’s Deadpool movie was filming in Vancouver, I got to visit the set with a few other reporters. While I was already excited to finally see Rob Liefeld’s most popular character come to life on movie screens, after speaking with most of the cast and the filmmakers, I left convinced we’re in for a special treat with Deadpool. Unlike a lot of comic book movies movies that play it safe and deliver PG-13 dialogue, the Deadpool movie is going to move the boundaries of what a superhero movie can show and do. It’s going to be loaded with sex, violence, great dialogue, and mayhem. It’s exactly what I want a Deadpool movie to be. I cannot wait for February 12, 2016 when the film hits theaters.

While on set I was able to participate in a group interview with Morena Baccarin – who plays Vanessa Carlisle. She talked about her character, how she gets involved with Ryan Reynolds, how familiar she was with Deadpool before signing on, filming eight years’ worth of sex scenes in one day, working with Tim Miller, what sets Deadpool apart from other comic book movies, and so much more.
